Federal Grant Procedures

The APS relies on staff, members and committees to carry out special projects that are supported by external funding from federal agencies and private foundations. The project leadership team has the opportunity to work with the APS in launching a national program that can have great impact and serve our community and other stakeholders and the country.

There are fundamental differences in leading an externally supported project for the APS and being the principal investigator on a project residing at a university or college. The Federal Grant Procedures manual provides information to people wishing to be the Principal Investigator or co-Principal Investigator on a grant under the auspices of APS.
